The criminals brought the guns and the victims managed to get one and shoot the criminal.

Is self-defense outlawed in Canaduh?

I know free speech has been outlawed.

A man’s home is his castle. Not in Canada.

Herein lies the Canadian problem: his shots ... “ ... were fired as the suspects fled “

Someone breaks into your home, he loses all rights to everything, including life. You have the right to kill him to protect your life and property.
Any country that prosecutes citizens for carrying out their rights is a fascist dictatorship run by a marxist who hates his own people.

Somebody needs to get Trudeau in a live, face to face interview, and ask him if he thinks this decision is logical or fair. I know he’s the President, and doesn’t act alone to change laws, but any president has a lot of influence on public trends. Come on! These homeowners were fantastic, they took charge of the situation and literally fought back!
Don’t you want your countrymen to consider that life as a Canadian citizen is worth fighting for?
Stop imitating the British.

The homeowner may very well be guilty under Canadian law.Here in the US "jury nullification" is a well known,but seldom discussed,concept...a concept even addressed by our Founding Fathers.

But the problem is that it's my understanding (and I could be wrong here) that in Canada,unlike in the US,"not guilty" verdicts can be appealed to a higher court by the prosecution....and presumably that verdict can be overturned by that higher court.

If I'm correct on that point this guy could be in serious trouble despite having acted in an entirely reasonable,moral and understandable fashion.

Canada is almost like having a Western Hemisphere North Korea on our 49th Parallel. When you read about these things, you realize that whatever Canada calls it’s “constitution” has no right to self-defense (among a lot of other things). The Western Provinces should join America ( everything from British Columbia to Manitoba, and the Yukon. That would make it easier to get to our 50th State, because the Canadians screw with Americans needing to transit Canada to get back and forth.

Canada has become a real sad communist like Nation. Anyone wanting freedom, forget this place. Health care is so damn bad that they sneak across the border to use our health system.

In many places in the USA you would also be charged if “..several shots were fired as the suspects fled........” Usually deadly force can only be used if your life is in danger. Once a person is running away it is hard to argue that you are still in danger.

He disarmed an intruder, took his gun. And is charged with, wait for it...’unauthorized possession of a firearm.’

Freedom has been dying in Canada for years, one day at a time. Try saying something not politically correct and find yourself facing charges.

It seems to be the fondest wish of the police up north that the homeowner/victims die rather than protect themselves. Which begs the question, where in the hell were the cops when the home invasion was going down? And, had they been there, what would have been their actions? How are we not to conclude that canadian cops want people murdered; is it to give them job security?
